Saratoga Race 1 - Race 1 - Allowance
FACT (4) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by 0.3 lengths over 1710m at Horseshoe Indianapolis (Dirt). Stepping up a level this time but on his best form he is one of the key runners. NOGRADI (1) built on a nice third two starts back at Churchill Downs (Dirt) with success over 1609m at Churchill Downs (Dirt) four weeks ago, getting home by half a length. Martin Chuan scored on him last time and retains the ride. Going up a level this time but he can win again. FOUNDERS (6) is back after a break of three months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1308m at Gulfstream Park. Definite top-three chance. CHILLAX (3) finished sixth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1911m at Churchill Downs, beaten 2.5 lengths. Nicely placed to play a pivotal role.

Second-up. Comes off a 48-day let-up. First-up after nine months ran second last of 7 at Churchill Downs on May 16 over 1710m, 15 len behind Thrilla with 56kg at $3.67. Previously second-up 5th of 10 at Aqueduct in the G2 Wood Memorial on April 5 2025 over 1811m, 8 len behind Rodriguez with 56kg at $30.75. Worth consideration.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 30 day let-up. Last start won by a 0.3 len at Horseshoe Indianapolis June 3 over 1710m defeating He's Late Again carrying 55.5kg at $1.50. The run before that 4th in a small field at Keeneland on April 15 over 1710m, 11 len behind Rothko with 53.5kg at $2.01. Great chance to win again.

Returns from a 48-day let-up. At the latest run ran last of 14 at Laurel in the G1 Preakness Stakes on May 16 over 1911m, 43 len behind Napoleon Solo with 57kg at $27.20. The run before that scored a big 4 len win at Aqueduct April 25 over 1609m defeating Anyway with 56kg at $2.43. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Resuming. Finished off last preparation second in a small field at Aqueduct April 4 over 1811m, 1.5 len behind Waitlist with 57kg at $4.42. On debut third in a small field at Gulfstream Park July 12 over 1308m, 7 len behind Keep On Moving with 54kg at $4.20. Could prove too smart for these.

Third-up today. Resuming 3rd in a small field at Aqueduct on April 12 over 1609m, 6 len behind Print carrying 57kg at $3.68. Last start won by 2.5 len at this track June 5 over 1811m defeating Hadrian's Wall with 57kg at $10.09. Prefer to watch at this stage.
